Re: [disklavier] All disks show as unformatted

2002-03-22 by Robert E. Welcyng

Contact Mark Wisner, Piano Service, Yamaha Corporation, mwisner@...
or at 800 854 1569.  He may ask for the piano's S/N.  Chances are he'll lead you
through a fix on the phone.  (It is quite unlikely anything is broken.  DKVs
left on and deserted while you go on a holiday sometimes get lonesome and
discombobulated.)

Good luck!
